Consumer Description

NO OIL OR ENGINE LIGHT. ONE DAY ENGINE STARTING MAKING A LOUD RACKET. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP THEY SAID IT SPUN A BEARING DUE TO OIL SLUDGE OR NO OIL. I HAD THE OIL CHANGED REGULARY AT WAL-MART AND SUPERLUBE SINCE I COULDN'T GET UNDE THE CAR TO CHANGE THE OIL MYSELF. CAR HAD 80,000 MILES WHEN THIS HAPPENED. NOW IT JUST SITS IN THE DRIVEWAY BECAUSE WE CAN'T AFFORD A 6500.00 BILL TO REPLACE MOTOR AND TO TOP IT ALL OFF WE STILL HAVE 2 YEARS TO PAY ON IT. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS. THERE ARE TOO MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME THING FOR DODGE JUST TO IGNORE.*AK
